Job prospects are actually good. Nothing set in stone yet, but I'm less worried than I was a coupe weeks ago.

On a way cooler note. I have lost 16 lbs in the past 2 weeks!

That may sound unhealthy, but I'm feeling pretty great.

I've been trying to cut back on what I eat for quite a while, then a year or so ago my girlfriend started a Ketogenic diet, and she's lost close to 50 lbs! I halfheartedly tried to cut out sugar and cut back on carbs, but I never really showed any progress, because I never did it consistently.

In the past 2 weeks I've cut refined sugar out almost totally (one minor bump with a couple cake bites). I've started working out, some basic dumbbell lifts and at least a mile walk/jog.

Plus I started weighing myself every day. I've been putting off weighing myself for years, Having a number stare up at you is daunting, especially when historically that number has only ever grown.

But I think weighing myself has helped the most, seeing that number drop by 1 or 2 lbs a day has been more of a motivation than I thought. If I'm tempted by a damn donut, I actually get sad to think that number wont go down, or might go up.

I still have a lot to go, and the only reason I'm losing so much so quickly is because I have a lot to lose. I'm expecting for the progress speed to slow a bit, and I'm sure it will also be harder to be good when I have a job again and I have money begging to be spent on fast food : /

It's going to be hard to keep up, but this is better than I've ever done before!
